Summary

A simple and rapid method for the spectrophotometric determination of uranium usingm- andp-carboxyphenylazo-chromotropic acid is given. The optimum conditions favouring the formation of the two complexes are reported. The molecular structure was found to be 1 ∶ 1 and 1 ∶ 2 of uranium to them- or thep-compound. Beer's law is obeyed for the ranges 2–16 and 2–18 ppm of uranium in the case of them- andp- compound respectively.

Zusammenfassung

Eine spektrophotometrische Methode zur Bestimmung von Uran mit Hilfe vonm-bzw.p-Carboxyphenylazochromotropsäure wurde beschrieben. Die besten Arbeitsbedingungen für die Bildung der beiden Komplexe wurden angegeben. Die Zusammensetzung entspricht dem Verhältnis 1 ∶ 1 bzw. 1 ∶ 2 von Uran zurm-bzw. zurp-Verbindung. Das Beer'sche Gesetz ist für die Bereiche 2–16 bzw. 2–18 ppm Uran im Falle derm-bzw. derp- Verbindung erfüllt.
